Um, most people want to see hand histories rather than have somebody tell a
tall tale.

A lot of people (myself included) hate slogging thru hand histories to
get to the point, especially when there often isn't one. On the other
hand it's not uncommon for a narrative to be missing important facts
that the narrator didn't even recognize. I think posters seeking
advice should write a brief narrative and then append the history so
responders can have both options at their disposal.

As far as "wasted bandwith" goes..I think he is stuck in the early
90's.
